AI-Powered Infectious Disease Surveillance for a Global Vaccine Manufacturer

A leading global vaccine manufacturer partnered with Polygon Health Analytics to revolutionize how infectious disease outbreaks are detected and monitored worldwide. By automating surveillance with advanced AI, the client's internal teams gained the ability to respond faster and more strategically to emerging health threats.

Client Challenge

The client required a scalable, real-time global surveillance system. Their existing approach depended on manual review of fragmented, multilingual news reports—demanding large teams and significant resources. This made early detection slow, costly, and difficult to scale across geographies.
